Killer Kane is tall and athletic, a deadly opponent in hand-to-hand combat. He is powerfully built, with handsome features, black hair, and piercing green eyes. Kane has a few affectations: A small pencil mustache adorns his sardonic lips, and he prefers to have his personal vehicles painted in dark colors. "Just playing the villain again." as he might say. Kane has learned to revel in his power and abuse it. Proud and haughty, he is not beyond lying to advance his career, or leaking information to the enemy in order to put rivals away. As one of the best pilot in the known galaxy, he felt that he was above the law, and when any irregularities were detected, he used his power and reputation to suppress them.

Kane is a bitter man: a man who believes that he really is doing the right thing, and that history has unfairly branded him the villain.
